Chapter 2 2

Holding the shears with her right hand, she let out a sickening smile that sent nothing but chills into the poor woman's veins. The officers immediately pulled her gun and tried to shoot her, but before she could pull the trigger she felt the shears pierce her neck and she looked at Ruelle before turning slowly to Tony who had his gun pointed at Ruelle while trying to control the car.

Ruelle kicked his hand as he pulled the trigger, and it shattered the window, which made her laugh. The officer before her kept staring at her as she bled to death, she couldn't speak, but the pain she felt was unbearable.

Tears made their way down to her cheeks as she thought about her children, but she watched Ruelle take two fingers covered in her blood and place them into her mouth.

"Hmm... A bit sugary, but I love it." she laughed and removed the shears before turning to Tony, who was scared for his life. "... It's your turn now" right before her eyes Tony opened the door and rolled out of the car, but she didn't hesitate to follow him as a matter of fact walking out of a running car has turned to her specialty.

Ruelle was a twenty-two-year-old girl and the most wanted criminal in New York City. No one knew who she was to exact till today, for age always did her work with her face covered with a mask.

Rumor has it that she takes a bag of blood from each victim, and these rumors had been proven true when CCTV cameras spotted her killing a store owner late at night and drank a glass filled with the woman's blood.

Everyone feared the woman behind the mask, little did they know that she was the daughter of a reputed businessman _ Tobias Kye. Ruelle was the sweetest daughter anyone could ever have, but her parents always wondered why she was always quiet, why she was always in her room.

She walked into a narrow part with her hands in her pocket and the moment she walked out to the main road, the officer bumped into her, but before she could make a move she grabbed his hand.

"Cousin! I have been looking all over the place for you, come on, Dad is waiting." Tony knew too well that he couldn't escape this woman, for the smile on her face was enough to convince anyone that she was a lovely woman.

"R... Rule, I have duties to attend to." he tried freeing himself from her grip, but she held on so tight that he swore that his fingers would be broken in a matter of seconds.

"Let's take a cab to the hospital." Her sudden change of emotion scared the shit off him, but he knew too well that at this point his life was in danger, so he had to go along with whatever she said.

They both got into a cab and the driver recognized Ruelle as Tobias's daughter and Tony as a police officer, of course, and he continued to talk as he drove. Tony noticed as Ruelle's eye's began to twitch, and she slowly began to pull out a rope from her jacket.

"R... Ruelle.'' She didn't even spare him a glance; she just continued to pull the rope while reaching for the driver. "... Ruelle!!" He snapped, and she dropped the ropes on the floor before blinking severally and looking at him.

"Did you say something, Cousin?" She asked with her eyes filled with innocence.

"Not at all, you were lost in your thoughts, that's why I called your name." Tony realized that she was actually a serial killer or rather a Psychopath running free in the street, but he was confused as to how her parents never knew about this.

He looked at her wrist and recognized the tattoo of a broken heart, and it looked exactly like the one of the night killer who had killed fifty-two people in three years now fifty-four.

He slowly picked up the ropes as she concentrated on her phone. At that point, Tony was beginning to realize that he needed to do something the moment he got to the hospital, but how on earth was he going to escape her?

The car came to a sudden halt and Ruelle lifted her eyes from the phone to look outside the window, she suddenly burst into tears and Tony was certain that the girl before him had mentally lost her mind.

"Ma'am..." The cab driver started, but Tony glared at him, which made him shut up immediately.

Tony paid him and got Ruelle out of the car. This girl was without a fact fully armed, but he knew he couldn't reach any of her weapons. As he opened the door, the other officers were there waiting for him, and a nurse took Ruelle to her mother.

"What took you so long? And where's Daciana?" The head of the police department asked, but Tony had his eyes focused on Ruelle who was sitting down with a nurse.

"Daciana is dead, keep it down, guys. Ruelle actually killed her father, this girl is a psychopath and almost had me killed, do not look at her." he stepped on his colleague's foot.

"Sorry, why does she look so innocent."

"She's a psychopath, and she is the night killer. The same one we have been looking for three years, I recognize the tattoo on her wrist and she killed Daciana as well."

"Any idea why she killed her father?"

"She said she wanted to have a taste of her father's blood, the same thing she said before killing Daciana with a pair of shears. The axe on her father's body says it all, the night killer specializes in axes and Ruelle is fully armed, so it's a bad idea to even try and attack her right now."

"She trusts you well enough" Tony looked at his boss like he was about to commit murder.

"Trust? She wants to kill me to taste my freaking blood. How am I supposed to handle a maniac?"

"Tony, go over there and put some..." A bloody scream was heard from the hallway, and when Tony looked to where Ruelle sat, she was gone.
